Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels (July 19, 1874 - April 22, 1954) was a
Austrian occultist, former Cistercian monk and founder of the Ariosophy
movement. He was a friend of student of Guido von List. Lanz von
Liebenfels helped found the "Guido-von-List-Gesellschaft" (Guido von
List society) in 1905 and in 1907 he founded the "Ordo novi templi"
(Order of the New Templars). He published the magazine Ostara, Briefbücherei der Blonden und Mannesrechtler from 1905 till 1930.

He was born on July 19, 1874 in the Penzing district of Vienna in what
was then Austria-Hungary, as the son of schoolmaster Johann Lanz and his
wife Katharina, née Hoffenreich. His parents were middle class, and his
fathers ancestors had been burghers in Vienna since the early 18th
century.

Lanz became a monk in the Cistercian order in 1893, assuming the name
Georg and living in the Heiligenkreuz monastery. In 1894, he claimed to
have been enlightened after finding the tombstone of a Knight Templar,
and began developing his theories of "nordic cosmic heritage" and "pure
races".

In his essay "Theozooly or inheritance of gross aberration sodomites and
elektron of the Gods" (1905), Liebenfels explores various scientific
theories and ideas current in his time to confirm their theories of
race. That same year published an article titled "Antropozoon Bible," in
which he argues that in a home, there were two quite distinct and
humanities outside of one another. On the one hand, we find the
"Children of the Gods" (Teozoa) and on the other hand the "Children of
Men" (Antropozoa). The first were the Aryans, with a pure spirituality;
other races came from biological evolution of animals. So Liebenfels
explained the "adamic fall" as a union of sex with each other. At the
root of this fall, the Aryan race could get into miscegenation, losing
divine powers, the higher order and paranormal abilities such as
telepathy or clairvoyance, among others. The process of racial mixing
made these qualities limited to a few descendants of Aryans, which
recover Aryan racial purity equivalent to recover the spiritual nature
of the early Aryans.
This was outlined in its "Theosofy and Assyrian gods" (1907): "They
female animals very beautiful but descendants of others who had no soul
or intelligence. They made monsters, evil demons. " Liebenfels asserts
that the Atlantis was divided into pure species and bestial,
corresponding to the first and the first anthropoid apes anthropomorphic
second: "The fatal error of anthropoids, the fifth root of the Aryan
race-homo sapiens-had repeatedly been mixed with the descendants of
apes. " In this vein, Goodrick-Clarke said that "the consequence of such
sins, then institutionalized as satanic cults, was the creation of
several mixed racess, threatening the sacred authority of the Aryans."
The men-gods original error was similar to that found in Genesis-6, when
"the sons of God come down to earth and mate with the daughters of
men."
His interest in the latest discoveries, such as X-rays, radioactivity
and radio, Liebenfels led him to develop a "scientific theology," in
which the gods represented the highest form of life and were possessing
special powers and Reception transmission of electrical signals from the
bodies located in the pineal and pituitary glands, which then would
have been stunted. This regression or reversal, as we have said, stemmed
from the union of men with men-gods and beasts-miscegenation.
The figure of Christ was fascinated to Liebenfels, who saw it as a pure
Aryan exponent, and interpreting fragments Apochraphal came to say that
the powers of which was endowed came from "elektrón divine", a kind of
cosmic force electro-which will also be known as vril. The message of
salvation of Christ interpreted as a project purification of the Aryan
race, which included the necessary destruction of a corrupt world to
restore the original Golden Age. With this objective should be to purify
and preserve the racial integrity of the Aryan race, as well as
launching a great crusade against the threat and the expansion of
"demonic races." By adopting a eugenic doctrine, it would in practice to
revive the Aryan, the Aryan race in its most extreme original purity.
The magazine was founded in 1905 by Lanz, Ostara (name of the German
goddess of Easter spring) took a huge spread in the German countries,
reaching runs over 100,000 copies. It appeared in two series, from 1905
to 1917, eighty-nine numbers and published from 1922 to 1927, with
twelve more numbers. There are many indications that Hitler read with
great interest in his youth and the same Liebenfels asserts that the
future Führer then, when I lived in Vienna, was personally in touch with
him to get some copies missing in his collection. This publication
interested in the issue of religion and race, wrote occult and
ideologues who called for revolt against the "subhuman races" and in
particular against the Jews, who since the financial power, and
enslaving would extort the West and in particular the German nation .
Salvation is obtained by the rescue of ancient aryan wisdom which had
been spread by ancient civilizations as Hiperbórea and Atlantis.
Ostara offered a hope of redemption conducting a policy providing
safeguards to the Aryan race of subhuman races, which would later the
ideological basis of eugenics national socialist. In a paragraph of this
magazine, Liebenfels states that "the Aryans are the masterpiece of the
gods and are endowed with supernatural powers and paranormal, emanating
from" centres of power "and" power bodies "that confer absolute
supremacy over any other creature. " In his theology, Lanz von
Liebenfels also used astrology and defined the history of mankind as a
"war between races," whose final eschatological was clearly evident in
their horoscopes. From the years 1960 to 1968 planned an invasion of
Europe by arias races not to be the harbinger of destruction of the
world system. Since then, it would have to develop a racial
regeneration. This will be followed by a new millennium guided by a kind
of Aryan Church, in which an elite initiated in the secrets of the
"aryanism" guide the destiny of the world. The ideal of a caste of
"warrior monks" as the Knights Templar, was the antecedent of the Order
Black shape later that the SS.
As List, also Joseph Lanz von Liebenfels was influenced by the example
of the Knights Templars, as the founder of the Cistercian Order, which
had served in his youth, was Bernardo de Claravall, promoter and
ideologue of the Order of the Knights Temple. Following its wake, in
1907, founded the Lanz von Liebenfels ONT (Order of the New Temple),
located in the castle Burg Werfenstein and 25 December the same year,
the winter solstice, flew the banner of the Order with a swastika sun.
The aim of this was to promote racial awareness through archaeological
and historical research, religious studies and the restoration of the
ancient rituals wotánicos. The castle has worked to create an
anthropological museum and monument of the Aryan race, which would be
completed later by the organization-SS Ahnenerbe. For Liebenfels,
rebuild the Order of the Temple was tantamount to creating a brotherhood
worthy of receiving the Holy Grail in custody. What was the Holy Grail
for ariósofos?: An energy accumulator, which issued the "electron of the
gods", aimed at maintaining its powers above and transcendent.
The O.N.T. Was divided into various degrees: priest, Prior cofrade and
others who differed by symbols sewn in their robes. Despite its elitist
nature, his ideas were widespread in Germany and Austria, especially
after the development teozoológica Christian, in which the Grail was
assimilated to "elektrón", the divine power of the Aryans. The theories
of racial Lanz von Liebenfels are based on his idea of regeneration and
recovery of the Aryan race.
